So kind of a weird question, but I figured I'd ask it here cause there's some smart peoples here. I am in a position where I have to mic/record basically an entire audience. The goal is for the audience to be able to ask questions to the stage, WITHOUT having to be passed a mic or anything, and have it picked up for the recording. I'd prefer to do this with 2-3 mics, and they'd have to be stationary (just me crewing it, and I'll be at the mixer). Anyway - what kind of mics/placement would work for this? I was thinking maybe 2-3 shotgun mics (like the ME-66, used for film/TV boom mics) - any ideas? My assumption would be something thats VERY sensitive, and not too directional (but obviously not omni).
Oh yeah - the audience size - farthest person from the mic would be maybe 50-60 ft.
Thanks in advance for any ideas,
